Free Trade in New England.

4
1t is curious fact that the New
England protected manufacturers
are turning free-traders. They dc
not advocate free trade in all
things; they are too selfish for that,
Their patriotic liberality rises only
to the point of demanding free trade
in the articles they have to buy,
while still insisting on being protec-
ted in the, things they have to sell.
They are beginning to advocate a
reform of the tariff in the interest
of raw materials ; that is, they think
the wool, hides, hemp, coal, chem.
icals and other crude commodities
which they use sin manufacturing,
ought to be admitted Zee of duty,
but that the. goods they mako of
these materials should continue to
be made subjects of protective du-
ties. But if these manufacturers
should be relieved entirely of the
tax, why should not the people be
relieved in part, at least, of the tax
they paw If duty on articles
the manufacturers consume is bur"
1ensome to them, is not a tax on
articles the people consume bur
den to them aiso?-St Louis Rep

Death of Henry DeBus.

AS will be seen from the follow
ing extract from the Cincinnati
Enquirer Capt. Henry DeBus died
at his home near that city last Sun
day morning. Capt. DeBus was
we'll known in this community as
the friend and former partner of
Col. Jay H. Northup. He was a
man of fine physique, and, apparent
ly, the last one to succumb to dis
ease. He was man of excellent
traits of character, being good cit

Henry DeBus, President of the
Cincinnati Cooperage Company,
died at his residence in Riverside
yesterday morning at aquarter past
three o'clock. Typhoid pneumonia
was the fatal disease, from which
Mr.. DeBus has been a sufferer fol
twelve weeks. He recovered SEINE
what a few weeks ago, but had re-
lapse, which resulted in his death
yesterday morning. He leaves 8
wife and three children, two daugh
tiers and son, who is the young
est member of his household. The
funeral will probably take place
| Wednesday afternoon.
| Mr.. DeBus was one of CINCINNATI:
most prominent business men. UI
| to the time Of his death he was
President and General Manager o
the Cincinnati Cooperage Compa
my, one of the largest concerns il
the world. He was a prominen
member of the Chamber of Com

member Of the Loyal Legion, of thu
G. A. f., and the Society of Elk

The Grand Army and the Pres
dents yetOes.
philadelphia Record,

Very wisely, and with unanimity
that was pleasing to contemplate,
the National sEncampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic crush
ed out a series of resolutions refer
ring to President Cleveland's pen
sion vetoes in terms the reverse of
complimentary. Such insolent
voicing of the spirit of Tuttleism in
the councils of the veterans has
been choked off none too soon for
the credit of the ex-soldiers.
THERE'S a general disposition a.
mong the people to call a pefempt-
DRY halt on this wholesale pension
business. While no man who
fought in the civil war will be per-
mitted to suffer, the people have be-
come profoundly impressed by the
stupendous aggregate of the annual
pension list, which already exceeds
in amount those of all other nations
of the world combined. The cry o.
of pension agents for open Treas
ury doors will not be regarded by 6
Congress which understands its du'
ty to the whole people. The veter.
an soldiers are not paupers, and
would not seek to levy tax upof
the country but while there exists
an overfowing Treasury there vii
remain constant temptation t.
indulge in pension raids of on,
form or another.
After che surplus shall have beer
cut down the clamor for pensions
for everybody will cease, because i
will have nothing to feed upon
The great mass of the people arr
quite of one mind with their Presi
dent in their views concerning THU
matter.

Daniel Manning say Nobody
pays a tax on tobacco except the
consumers Of the tobacco. They
are willing to pay for the luxury,
and they ask no relief. Any prop
able reduction of the tax on whisky
would be more likely to increase the
revenue than TO diminish it. The
price ofsugar has fallen to- an ex-
ceedingly cheap rate. Our own
sugar crop is so very small a part
of the total amohnt of sugar we con-
sumo, that sugar ranks next to ar
ticles wholly produced abroad, like
tea and coffee, in suitability for tax
tation, on the ground that its con
sumption is universal, that the tax
is easily and cheaply collected, that
the increased price paid BY the con-
sumers is an unconsidered triile and
that what is taken from the taxpay-
ers goes into the taxpayers, treas
ury, not into a few private bank ac-
counts
